    syzygy

    You go through all the vowels to get to Y and unless you know the word, you'll use a lot more letters before finding Z.

    queue

    The E's come quickly, but then you burn through a bunch of hard consonants before lucking into Q or circling back to the vowels, of which U will likely be the last.

    In Hanging with Friends I like to go with four letter words with two different vowels in them. The opponent usually runs out of guesses trying to figure out if the word is "done" or "bone."

    Isn't it the late 19th century?


    BTW, what does "the late 1900s" mean? Is it like 1907-1909? Or does it mean like 1990-1999? (Sorry to digress from the topic.)

    Good catch.

    20th Century Fox really needs to get with the times.

    I caught that too. I remember in my senior year in 94, Hangman was all the rage.
